Broadband is fast speed net access, and is somewhat faster than old dial-up access over a modem. If you yourself are reading this internet guide then you are assumably looking at securing net access for the first time, or wanting to increase your internet speed to broadband. Compare broadband packages and deals with a comparison site.

The primary advantage of broadband is you are able to watch movies over the internet, this has became deeply popular with ITV launching their new player which will allow people to view the most recent episodes of Gossip Girl. With fast internet access you might well also get pop music and movies at a much better speed than dial-up access.

Fast internet access is easy to connect. The 1st task people will need to do is sign up with an ISP, sometimes known as an Internet Service Provider, & the broadband firm will supply you yourself with a high speed connection through your telephone connection. If users already have an ISP then please make sure surfers make use of a broadband comparison web site for impartial advice on the finest high speed internet deals. Users may quickly see the most inexpensive deals with an internet provider comparison site by just entering in your city & then the service will give a list of broadband packages in your area. Users will be under no contract to sign up with any high speed broadband while surfers browse the supplier offers.

Once users have signed up with your Internet Service Provider the internet business will often supply a time period for internet connection & supply people with any necessary wireless routers & broadband software. The routers & broadband software might often come with step by step instructions and most corporations will often offer users IT support if needed.

Once surfers have successfully connected to the worldwide web users might well start to rejoice in the fast speeds of broadband. If you are going to download music, TV programmes such as The Bill or scary movies please be wary of any download allocations users may have on your high speed internet package. Dance music and TV downloads such as Star Trek might take up a lot of your ‘download allocation’ as the business are massive in file size.

A typical challenge faced by Flash developers like me is
getting fonts to look like you want then to. For any project
choosing the right font face and size is a process that requires
both you and ultimately the client to see eye to eye.

In Flash MX and earlier versions fonts were by default
anti-aliased, meaning that the edges of the text are smoothed.
This is good when dealing with large type but it causes small
text to appear blurry. Earlier versions of Flash also had other
issues. For instance if one were to realign textfields around
other objects fonts might come out of focus (because of
positioning), and getting it right could take several tries.

More recently with the advent of Flash MX 2004 came the “alias
text” option but, more importantly the TextField.StyleSheet()
class. What is the TexFiled.StyleSheet() class? I’ll get to that
but first let me tell you about this new “alias text” feature.
The latter hides the anti-aliasing to make small text sharper
and more legible yada, yada, yada. However, most often than not,
fonts appear overly pixilated and cracked. In my opinion “alias
text ” is nothing more than a little ransom note generator
making every character appear as if it had been cut out of a
magazine. Adding insult to injury if you are publishing for the
Flash 6 player or earlier versions on Flash MX 2004 the “alias
text” feature does not work on dynamic and or input textfields.

Moving forward with stylesheets. If you don’t already know
something about CSS don’t fret the small stuff. Get to your
favorite search engine and key in CSS (short for Cascading Style
Sheets), and in seconds flat you will find hundreds of articles
on CSS benefits, syntax, usage and whatnots. Very quickly, CSS
is the language of style on the web and as opposed to other
languages CSS is much easier to read and write. One of the
reasons for this is you can pretty much read everything just as
you would plain English, another is the ability to write
everything in lowercase, something you could never getaway with
in JavaScript.

CSS in ActionScript is relatively simple. The first thing we
want to do is open the Action panel and create an empty style
sheet object. Basically the idea is to load our style sheet
information in there (font size, weigh, color etc.), and then
assign that information to some text. Not only will you have
more crisp and legible fonts but more importantly, this mean you
can change details about your font in an entire Flash site by
simply editing one file. Pretty powerful stuff huh? Very handy
when clients decided they don’t like red anymore or call to tell
you that the font is too small. In the past such changes could
be very time consuming, requiring developers to go through the
whole movie editing textfield after texfield one at a time;
providing that the client was happy with the changes you’d might
get lucky and only need to run around that track once.

In my line of work I convert pre-designed web sites (web
templates) into a unique Internet project (web sites), in other
words I work with pre-made website templates. The whole basis
for using a website template is to develop fast and high-quality
website in half the time that it would normally take a regular
design studio to do the same. Utilizing style sheets with my
Flash templates enables me to keep my production time at a
minimum and ultimately the time I save will benefit my clients.
For detail instruction on how to create a style sheet object in
Flash MX 2004 simply open the help panel and search under the
keywords “cascading style sheets”. In all fairness I must
mention something about Pixel fonts. Pixel what? Pixel fonts are
fonts specially designed so that every part of every character
falls exactly on the monitor’s pixel. Pixel fonts are incredible
at getting fonts at small sizes looking crisp and legible at any
resolution. If you are wondering if Pixel fonts would display
correctly on the end user’s computer or some other platforms
that does not have these fonts already installed. The answer is
yes, but Pixel fonts must be embedded to ensure they are
displayed correctly on every computer. The downside here is that
embedding these fonts means an increase in file size which in
turn causes an increase in bandwidth needless to say bandwidth
determines the rate at which information is sent.

Nevertheless if you want to use fonts that look crisp even at
small sizes without the use of CSS, Pixel fonts are right for
you. To buy and or read more about Pixel fonts checkout these
website www.FontsForFlash.com and www.ductype.com.

In sum the choice is your, on smaller projects I would actually
prefer Pixel fonts over cascading style sheets, I mean why bring
a gun to the snipe hunt when all you need is my gunnysack. On
the other hand you can do without a lot of unnecessary
frustration going with CSS when working on larger projects.

With so much happening on a daily basis, it’s sometimes difficult to know what are the important things to keep an eye on when managing your business website. Here are a few pointers regarding some of the more important aspects of monitoring and measuring your business website’s performance.

Monetary Performance

How you define your website’s monetary performance, as well as how you measure it, is going to differ from business to business, but there are two specific aspects that most businesses will agree are fundamental:

1. How much money you are spending on developing, promoting, maintaining and managing your website.

2. How much money you are making from your website.

It sounds simple enough, but it’s not really as cut and dry as you might think. Most business websites have a marketing value attached to them that is difficult to quantify. For example, how do you measure how much money you made from people who found you on the internet, then subsequently phoned you to make contact, or walked in your shop door?

As far as is possible, keep accurate records of all money flow attributable to your online presence. Record the costs of development, maintenance and promotion of your website. Record online sales in such a way that you can calculate the cost per order. Ask your new customers how they found out about you, then keep track of their subsequent spend with you. This applies not only to your first sale. If you acquire one long-term big-spend customer, that alone can very often pay for a good deal of your online costs.

If you have substantial online sales, make sure that you are able to account for these sales separately from your offline sales. If you run online promotions, ensure that you include a tracking mechanism that will allow you to determine where your sale was originally derived - that way you will be able to revisit profitable online promotion opportunities and avoid those that produce little value.

Marketing Performance

As alluded to above, your website generates more than just the direct revenue associated with immediate purchases. Your business website serves another important function — that of marketing your business to the world at large in a way that you would find impossible to do yourself.

There are many many ways you can track the marketing performance of your website, but the most important thing is to keep accurate records and compare them month-on-month, then learn from them and keep improving your website accordingly. Here are a few suggestions to maximize the marketing benefit of your website:

1. Update your site regularly with updated information about your business, your services, and the value you provide.

2. Start a newsletter to keep in regular and direct contact with your existing and prospective customers

3. Provide online feedback facilities to allow customers to contact you with positive and negative feedback, as well as sales leads.

4. Provide online customer service tools such as online message box facilities to speedily assist customers

5. Update your site regularly with press releases and other newsworthy content.

6. Provide articles online to assist your prospective customers with information related to your products and services. You are, after all, an expert in your field, and this is a great way to share your knowledge and showcase your value to prospective customers.

7. Utilize traffic monitoring tools to monitor traffic to your site. A good software package should provide detailed statistics of your visitors, number of pages viewed, from which country they are coming, and so forth. Make sure you keep a detailed history of this information, it can be a great way to track the growth of your site over time, and there’s nothing better than seeing a graphic representation of that growth.

8. Provide online survey tools. This is a great way to research your market, especially if you have a number of your clients subscribed to your newsletter. A simple link in the newsletter to your online survey can quickly provide targeted research results in record time. What better way to learn about your market than to ask them directly for feedback? Make sure that the results are stored in a database for subsequent analysis.

There’s a lot to managing your online business presence, it is after all simply an online representation of the rest of your business. By focusing on the direct and indirect benefits, monitoring and measuring them, you are sure to keep improving the performance of your entire business.

When you build your website you need to have a plan first. The
reason for this is if you do not have a plan you will likely
make mistakes, forget to include information, and overall have
an unorganized and not a well thought out page. While you might
read the page and completely understand everything, remember
that your website visitor did not design the page and needs a
little more direction. Read the following 10 website blunders
that are common and will make your visitors head to another site
quickly.

Blunder #1 Contact Information You need to provide your contact
information, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and physical
address if important. The reason for this is if a potential
customer wants to contact you for whatever reason they can!

Blunder #2 Poor Organization Make sure your website is well
organized and that all links are obvious. You should even use
subheadings to make it even more clear where information is. You
don’t want to have to make people search.

Blunder #3 Checkout Make the checkout process straightforward
and easy. Too many times people get to the checkout and it is
difficult, asks for a lot of unnecessary information, and
generally takes longer than the customer wants to spend buying
the product. As a result, the potential customer leaves your
site to buy elsewhere. Don’t let this happen to you, make your
checkout fast and easy!

Blunder #4 Typos If your website has typographical errors, it
will be noticed by your visitors. Many people consider this a
sign of a novice, not a professional who is in business trying
to make a living. If your website is full of typos, people are
not going to believe that you take your site seriously and as a
result they won’t either.

Blunder #5 Hidden Information Do not hide information. You as a
webmaster might not think the information is hidden, but if it
is not readily visible it might as well be hidden. Make all
information obvious and easy to find.

Blunder #6 Personal Information Do not ask for personal
information, and if you do explain why and do not make it
mandatory. Many times people will want to buy your product and
get to the checkout page only to have to answer lots of personal
questions first. This will send people to other less
interrogative pages.

Blunder #7 Too Many Forms Keep it simple. If you are asking for
memberships, checkouts, or anything that requires information,
do not use a lot of forms. Figure out what questions you really
need to ask and keep it short and sweet.

Blunder #8 You, not We Focus on your customers, their needs, and
what you can do for them. Your customer is not going to your
page to find out about you, but what you can do for them.
Remember this and if you have to put a web history about
yourself, then do so in a special section where people can opt
to read it.

Blunder #9 Help People Make a Decision People might not know
what they want when they go to your website. So, lead them, make
suggestions about products, and provide backgrounds and uses for
different products.

Blunder #10 Focus Make sure the focus of your site is obvious
and clear from the first page of your site and throughout.

Branding is more than just product recognition inherent in the
printed materials that they may be using. It is actually the
overall impression, both intellectual and emotional, that people
will have about your company, products and services. These are
also the things that convey a strong and consistent message to
the readers and thus emphasize the value of your business.

A trustworthy brand does not only remain memorable, they also
enforce loyalty from its customers. It helps them to remember
how they have once used your services and it had provided them
with the best service possible. So it is important that before
you go about thinking how to have yourself branded, the main
thing to consider is understanding the needs and concerns of
your customers and potential customers.

Brand building does not come easily. It is an ongoing process
that takes time, money and a lot of effort. Its value is much
more difficult to attain because it would be based on the
response that people will give. The emotional associations of
people unto them would not be instantly converted to revenues.
Time and patience should be practiced here.

The best times to reinforce your branding are when the business
is booming and when the sales are slow. It is during these times
that you want your customers to have a positive association with
you and your company. You would not want them to start thinking
about other alternatives just because you were neglecting the
service that they have known you are good into. You would
certainly want to prove your worth even though your business is
a new one.

Branding is seen in everything that the person or company is
using. May it be in the most visible posters, in the smallest
business cards or in the less seen internet sites doing your
marketing. It is your goal to control and maintain the image you
are projecting. It is what people have come to know you for so
it is supposed to stay that way.

Ask yourself two questions. Are you doing something that is
different and more effective than what everyone else is doing?
What is your value to your customers? If you cannot provide a
good answer to these questions, it is obvious that you still do
not have a good branding or your branding has not reached it
goals yet.

Think about it.

You know it’s time for a new web site to promote your expert witness practice if: 1) your home page features a button that says “click here to skip intro;” 2) your webmaster quit over two years ago and you have not had time to find a replacement; 3) your web site still features a visitor counter; or 4) your web site uses “frames.”

Today there are many options available to an expert in need of a new web site. This article will explore the use of a web site “template.”

Basically, a template is a pre-designed set of one or more web pages complete with graphics, menu buttons, attractive color schemes and text areas to describe your expert witness practice. You can choose from a number of suppliers, including TemplateMonster, Templates Resource, Perfectory, Templates.net, or Boxed Art. (Please note that these are not product endorsements.)

Pros and cons on web site templates

Pro # 1: Purchase prices are affordable, generally in the range of $40 to $250 for a one-time payment.

Pro # 2: Templates are a fast way to create and launch a new web site.

Con # 1: Your web site is not unique. You may see the same web site design in use by other experts, even competing experts. You may be able to make a “unique purchase” for a higher fee, meaning that the provider will not sell the same design to anyone else. You still compete, however, with others who purchased the same design before you did.

Con # 2: You need some basic technical skills to set up the web site template. Also, customization might be difficult. If you are not technically inclined with basic HTML skills, chances are good that you will need an agreeable webmaster or designer.

Only you can decide if a web site template is the right approach for you. While you are planning a new web site, here are 5 quick tips to maximize expert witness litigation support leads from Internet marketing.

5 tips for expert witness website marketing success

1. Minimize or avoid the use of “flash.” What is flash, you ask? It is a popular technology developed by Macromedia that creates visual action, animation or interactivity on a web site. While attractive, it can interfere with search engine positioning.

2. Load your copy with keywords delivered in a text format. “Keyword density” is important to get good visibility in search engines. Be sure your web designer displays the copy in text format rather than as a graphic, so search engines can read your web pages. Print pages from your web site to confirm that copy is not cut off on the right margin. If the page doesn’t print properly, ask your webmaster to change the settings.

3. Display your phone number prominently. The masthead is an ideal location to let visitors know how to reach you for a potential expert witness engagement.

4. Pick the right title tags. Words like “expert witness,” “litigation support” and your area of expertise belong in a page title tag to increase search engine visibility. Each page can have its own title. Metatags like keywords and description are less important to search engines now. Online photos and graphics should have an “Alt” tag that displays a textual description when you mouse-over your photo or other page graphic.

5. Think landing pages for online advertising. Pay-per-click text ads on Google and Yahoo! are an excellent way to generate inbound litigation support leads. Don’t just send all leads to your home page. Consider using a special “landing page” that gives a concise description of your expert witness services, maybe even with a link to your CV. Give each web page its own URL so you can direct prospects to a specific page on your web site.

In summary, the key to any successful expert witness marketing project is to start with a plan. Identify your business objectives and work from there to create a web site that generates high quality litigation support leads.

Web Security The World Wide Web grew out of the need for people on the Internet to share I information with one another. Originally, web pages only contained text and a few graphics because modem data-transfer speeds were slow. Today, with high-bandwidth home-cable modem access and high-speed corporate networks, users can download multimedia video and music over the Internet in seconds. Web site functionality has also changed, with the static web pages of years ago being replaced by dynamic, media-intensive sites with greater user interaction and online shopping and banking becoming routine daily tasks. With this increased functionality, especially where the transfer of confidential information is concerned, the need for security for web communications has become a top priority. Users must now be authenticated to use secure areas of a web site, and the communications channel between the client and the web server needs to be encrypted, so unauthorized users can’t capture the data. There are various web-security protocols and the types of attacks that might compromise your Internet servers. As programmers add increased functionality to web sites and web browsers, the potential for security vulnerabilities increases. The biggest danger is the tendency toward integrating the web browser functionality with other computer applications and even the operating system (OS) itself. This means if a web-browser security vulnerability is exploited, an unauthorized user has access to the core system files and data of someone’s computer. When choosing a web host always make sure you keep the programming languages it can run in mind and make sure there are no security holes.

The internet offers freedom for visually impaired people and people with other types of disabilities. It offers them the opportunity to go shopping, talk with friends, run a business, and generally stay informed. This is something that not many people with good eyesight think about. For an experience that many of us view as primarily visual it is hard to grasp the importance of good content and a well designed site for people with these types of disabilities. However for web designers and SEO practitioners this should be of prime importance. Unfortunately, often it is not.

There has been great advanced in assistive technology recently for the 10+ million of Americans who are visually impaired. This includes screen readers and Braille devices which give them an alternative way to view a site. I was involved in a demonstration of this technology recently which is very impressive. Unfortunately the results from badly designed sites or poorly optimized sites greatly reduce the user experience of the visually impaired. Keyword stuffing, poorly written content, gibberish alt tags, stuffer anchor text, and graphical designs all weigh in to reduce the experience and make web sites, in some cases, almost impossible to comprehend.

Many web designers and SEO practitioners are not supportive of this group’s needs. They have been slowly coming around to the fact that great content offers an enhanced experience for the human visitor and for the search engine spiders. However by taking this a step further and incorporating techniques that aid assistive technology, rather than bog it down, they will be on their way to offering a first rate experience for all groups of internet users.

Let’s make a stand to help the quality of life for people with disabilities. Whether you are a site owner, web designer or SEO practitioner become informed of the needs of ALL of your user groups. Work to raise the awareness of their needs in your community and your industry. By making these efforts we will be doing our part help to improve the quality of life for disabled users. Is there any more noble cause?
